They say basketball is only a game. Tell that to Jeannette Jayhawks sophomore Kymone Brown, playing with flu-like symptoms after watching practice from a computer screen all week and finishing with 10 points in an unthinkable and absolutely unbelievable 48-46 overtime upset win over Greensburg Central Catholic (“Jeannette shocks rival Greensburg Central Catholic in PIAA 2nd round,” March 13, TribLive).

“I was sick tonight,” Brown was quoted as saying. “But I had to keep playing. I’m never going to quit. I won’t quit until I’m dead.”

Will someone please tell Kymone Brown that basketball is only a game? Go ahead, I dare you!
